Subject: First sprint diet
Do most people change their diet as they prep for their first sprint?  I eat fairly "normally"...  What ever that means..  I been concentrating on my training but what should I do with my diet.  I would like to lose 10 pounds over the next 4 week but dont want to lose energy..

10 pounds in 4 weeks is not super aggressive, but it is sort of above the "recommended" level of 1 pound a week ......

I would focus on eating well and proper food combining.  Make sure to get your calories in right after your workouts so you replenish your stores and stay well hydrated.

There's no magic to it.  Eat less calories than you put out and you will lose weight.

There is a nutrition section on BT as well, so maybe peruse that portion of the site for some ideas?
